“For me, it’s about collaboration.” — National
Treasury Employees Union President Colleen Kelleyon the relationship between the anti-Tea Party IRS union
and the Obama White House

Is President Obama directly implicated in
the IRS scandal?

Is the White House Visitors Log the trail
to the smoking gun?

The stunning questions are raised by the following set of
new facts.

March 31, 2010.

According to the White House Visitors Log, provided here in searchable
form by U.S. News and World Report, the president of the
anti-Tea Party National Treasury Employees Union, Colleen Kelley,
visited the White House at 12:30pm that Wednesday noon time of
March 31st.
The White House lists the IRS union leader’s visit this way:

Kelley, Colleen Potus 03/31/2010 12:30

In White House language, “POTUS” stands for “President of the
United States.”
The very next day after her White House meeting with the
President, according to the Treasury Department’s Inspector
General’s Report, IRS employees — the same employees who belong to
the NTEU — set to work in earnest targeting the Tea Party and
conservative groups around America. The IG report wrote it up this
way:

April 1-2, 2010: The new Acting Manager, Technical Unit,
suggested the need for a Sensitive Case Report on the Tea Party
cases. The Determinations Unit Program Manager Agreed.

In short: the very day after the president of the quite publicly
anti-Tea Party labor union — the union for IRS employees — met
with President Obama, the manager of the IRS “Determinations Unit
Program agreed” to open a “Sensitive Case report on the Tea party
cases.” As stated by the IG report.

The NTEU is the 150,000 member union that represents IRS
employees along with 30 other separate government agencies. Kelley
herself is a 14-year IRS veteran agent. The union’s PAC endorsed
President Obama in both 2008 and 2012, and gave hundreds of
thousands of dollars in the
2010 and
2012 election cycles to anti-Tea Party candidates.

In the week of April 22, the Office of the White House Counsel and its
head, Kathryn Ruemmler, were told by Treasury Department attorneys that
an inspector general's report was nearing completion, the White House
official said. In that conversation, Ms. Ruemmler learned that "a small
number of line IRS employees had improperly scrutinized
certain…organizations by using words like 'tea party' and 'patriot,' "
the official said.

President Barack Obama
said last week he learned about the controversy at the same time as the
public, on May 10, when an IRS official revealed it to a conference of
lawyers. The president's statement drew criticism, focusing attention on
his management style and whether he has kept himself sufficiently
informed about the agencies under his authority.

The Washington Post's The Fact Checker provides multiple examples of key statements made by Lois G. Lerner, the IRS’s director of the exempt organizations division, being outright lies and gives her "A bushel of Pinocchios."

In some ways, this is just scratching the surface of Lerner’s
misstatements and weasely wording when the revelations about the IRS’s
activities first came to light on May 10. But, taken together, it’s
certainly enough to earn her four Pinocchios.

Then, via video which will be show below, it is reported that Lois Lerner, is an active member of the Humane Society, and prevented a 2010 investigation from being conducted into their political activities.

Meaning, the IRS did not just target conservatives but protected liberal groups, specifically a liberal group Lerner was closely associated with.

Tell me again why Lerner is still employed and being paid by taxpayers?
